Free geography flight delivery game
Geographical Adventures is a free flight simulation game for Windows where you fly around the world delivering packages. The gameplay is similar to Townseek and Microsoft Flight Simulator 10, while the concept of delivering packages is akin to missions in GTA V. It has superb graphics, but it lacks any form of sound.
The game feels incomplete, and there’s a lot more that can be done to improve it. Countries have no labels, so you’ll need to know where they are on the different continents. There’s also a lack of a tutorial while buttons have limited actions.
When you start playing Geographical Adventures, you’ll see three locations at the top of the screen. You can press the number for the country and city to indicate that you’ve selected it as your mission. As soon as you arrive at the spot, you’ll see a red dot showing you where to drop the package.
The next destination
If you succeed, you’ll receive a message telling you how well you did. Failing to drop it at the location tells you that the mission was a devastating failure. Instead of replacing only that destination, you’ll see three new ones.
Missions and controls
Sadly, the controls aren’t as sophisticated as GTA V or Flight Simulator. You can change directions or height, while there’s a single button for delivering the package. It would have been an incredible experience if there was more to do in Geographical Adventures than flying around, hoping you succeed. You could stay in the air for as long as you want without even worrying about the objective.
Superb visuals
The one aspect of Geographical Adventures that’s stunning is the visuals. It seems the developer spent most of the time working on this element. The topography and land images are beautiful, and there’s a day/night cycle as you fly around the globe. Unfortunately, there’s no sound to accompany the flight.
Almost no meaning
Geographical Adventures doesn’t offer much in terms of entertainment. While it may be free, it’s clear that more development is needed to integrate sound and other functions. The countries aren’t even labelled, so you’ll need to guess where you are by the landmarks.
If you’re into casual gameplay, you can give it a try, but you won’t be playing it for too long. There’s a sense of frustration when you don’t know where you’re going.
